Intramurals in full swing for fall

Students compete in women’s volleyball to see who has the best volleyball team on campus.

Intramural sports are in full swing at UNA. Last week, UNA held the playoffs that wrapped up the intramural volleyball season, which means flag football and golf are right around the corner.

The sports are hosted by the Student Recreation Center, and anyone who wants to play can sign up through the UNA website.

“You can get a group of friends together, or if you don’t have a team, you can sign up individually, and they’ll put you on a team,” said Beverly Love, who has been involved in the intramural community for two years.

Joining intramural sports is a great way to get to know people and get involved in friendly, and sometimes intense, competition, said Love.

“Oh, I love it,” Love said. “I would play every sport if I could.”

Her co-ed volleyball team, Legacy, advanced to play in the championships Thursday.

Although it is too late to sign up for golf and flag football, there are remaining sports available to sign up for this semester, including baggo, three-on-three basketball and darts.

“I think intramural sports are a great social avenue in college,” said Dexter Shorter, coordinator of intramural and club sports.

Shorter encourages anyone interested to look up the UNA Intramural and Club Sports page on Facebook.
